Dream Engines: Nomad Cities mixes the basic idea of Factorio with action RPGs and survival. But is it fun? We have tested the building game in Early Access.

The fact that the factory-building simulation Factorio is one of the best construction games of the last few years should have gotten around to you by now. Obviously also with one or the other game developer, because currently more and more titles are shooting out of the ground that take up the automation and optimisation of production chains and provide them with new ideas.

Satisfactory, for example, brought the genre out of the iso-perspective and into the first-person perspective, and Dyson Sphere Program rethought the genre on a completely different scale by letting you colonise entire star systems.

Dream Engines: Nomad Cities also relies on the core gameplay of Factorio and wants to make it even better with its own ideas, Elements from survival games, action RPGs and roguelikes are supposed to make for the next construction bestseller.
